SUPPORT YOUR OWN PRINTERS. Reading an article headed "Support your Mechanics" has induced us to throw together a few remarks on the habit the people m the West have got into, of patronizing foreign newspapers in preference to those of their own county and State. By foreign newspapers, we mean those printed at the Eastern cities, and which have obtained so large a patronage in the Western country. . We object to this habit, for very obvious reasons, and one reason is because it has a great tendency to prevent the prosperity and influence of the Western Press. If an individual is able to patronize more than one newspaper, let him first subscribe to for one printed in his own town, county, or neighborhood, and then we care not where he goes for ihe second In this matter we confess that our

feelings are sectional, and why should they not be? Our interests are the interests of our fellow-citizens and it becomes us then to work to each other's hands. There is no better evidence of the 'growth, prosperity, and intelligence of any country than to see the Pres3 in a flourishing and prosperous condition among its inhabitants; and when we see a newspaper in a languishing stale appearing once in two or three weeks its columns poorly filled the publisher insisting that he must have more subscribers, or calling on his old ones to pay up we invariably look uppn the people of that section, a3 a poor, ignorant, and bad-managing set, who do not know how toapprcciate their own interests. We, too, have been in the habit, since we first became acquainted with newspapers, of judging of the character of a town by the appearance we mean the outward looks of the paper printed therein for when it is well executed, the impression 'fair and clear,' and every thing arranged in order, we take it for granted that that paper has a good support, and the inhabitants of the town and country are in a prosperous condition. "When this is the case, the printer goes to work cheerful &. buoyant in spirit; he uses his best endeavors to please his patrons, and improve the appearance and usefulness of his paper; and sucli a printer never thinks about "writing for glory, and printing on trust." In soliciting subscribers of our own paper, some individuals have said to us, "Oh I can get the Saturday Courier for the same price you charge for yours, and it's got more in than your paper." We knew this to be true, and some times thought of saying, "Go and get itf but this might have been considered uncivil. The Saturday Courier, it is true, is a largo paper, and has such a large patronage that it can be afforded for two dollars per year. A great many people in this country take .that paper to the exclusion of all others and what is it to them when they have it? Can they find any thing in it touching the affairs of their own town, county, and State? Do they find the result of their elections? the proceedings of their legislature? the progress of their improvements? and many other matters which sometimes may be of vital importance to them? No, they find none of this; but they do find all the fights, quarrels, mobs, duels, murders, accidents, and such like stuff, which take place from Maine to Georgia. Wc consider it a genuine old woman's paper, fit only for those who are particularly fond of the marvellous. We go against the Courier, too, because it is an Eastern paper. We want to see Western literature and Western periodicals encouraged. At Cincinnati there are two literary papers the Mirror, and the Chronicle. Give to either of these papers the patrongc of the Saturday Courier, and we will insure as large and a better paper, at the same price. To those who will not patronize us, we would recommend either of the two Cincinnati papers and next to our own, wo wish to see these papers flourish. They are essentially Western papers: they do not send agents through the Eastern states to solicit subscribers; it is to the West alone they look for their support. Another thing we dislike to see, is the habit a great many Western Fditorshzve got into of publishing long advertisements for these Easiern papers, and puffing them into notice. An editor who does this is certainly blind to his own interest, for he is helping to bring these papers into competition with his own. All that they get in return is an exchange, and wo have even known this to be rerefused. We presume no one will say that a newspaper is of no advantage to the town or country in which it is printed. Why then not foster and cherish them in preference to those printed at a great distance from their own? We hope the Western people will soon seethe injustice thev are doing an invalu

able branch of the mechanic arts, by refusing their aid and support. We hope, too, to see a degree of sectional pride and jealousy spring up among us, which will induce our people to "surroirr their

OWN MECHANICS.

Times.

From the Comet. By the politenesssof Col. Carr we have been favored with the perusal of a letter from Capt. L. Ford, of the U. S. Dragoons, dated Fort Gibson, August 19th; from which we make the following extract. "Col. Dodge marched his regiment from this post on the 19th of June, with orders from the commanding general to perform a certain tour by the way of ihe mouth of the Washita, and from thence to the Red river, visiting several tribes of Indians on or near the supposed boundary between the United States and Mexico, and on the river Plate, and thence to Fort Levenworth. When the Col. reached Washita, the command became so unhealthy that it was found impracticable to march to the Pawnee villages with the entire command. The Col. selected about 250 of the most healthy and efficient men and horses, and made a push for the

villages, leaving the balance at the Washita under the command of Lieut. Col. Kearney. General Levenworth followed in the rear, with a company of infantry and apiece of artillery; but unfortunately he and Lieut. M'Clure both took sick and died within about forty miles of the Pawnee village.4 The Colonel marched on with hi3 detachment, and within about ten or twelve miles of Red river, fell in with about seventy or eighty Camanchees. These Indians were very timid, and it was with difficulty they could be prevailed upon to stand. In going thence about sixty miles, they came into the vicinity of the Pawnee vilhges. In the evening they caught two Pawnees, one of whom they kept in custody, and sent the other into the village to invite the Indians out to the dragoon camp. On the next day, early in the morning several of the principal Pawnees chiefs, with four or live hundred of their warriors mounted and equipped, inarched out to the Dragoons' camp, and after becoming satisfied that there was no hostile intention on the part of the whites, they invited the Colonel to their village, for the purpose of holding a council. The Col. marched through their village and encamped about a mile and a half from it. There he made a feast, and sent for some of the Kiaways, Pawnees, and Picts. The officers of the Dragoons met with about an equal number of the leading chiefs from those several tribes who had assembled with about a thousand of their warriors, and held a council in their council house. The Col. demanded Abby, the ranger who was captured last summer. They stated he was taken by the Texas Camanchees, and was sacrificed immediately after crossing Red river. He then demanded a boy who was captured about three months ago; the boy was the son of Judge Martin near FortTowson, who had gone out on a hunting expedition and had taken with him his little son, about eight years old and a negro boy. The Indians killed the father and the negro, and captured the boy. They very reluctantly consented to give him up, and sent a runner for him two miles from the village. When the little boy found himself among whito men he could hardly contain himself. The Col. arrived with the detachment yesterday, and brought the little boy, and 18 chiefs of the different tribes of Indians; the most savage looking Indians I ever beheld. They will remain here till the several tribes, in this region arc assembled for the purpose of treating. They arc at war with all our friendly Indians. The horses of the detachment have returned in very thin order. Col. Kearney did not come in with the detachment, but is expected, with his command in a few days. As soon as the horses can be sufficiently recruited, my company with three others, will march to Fort Levenworth, there to remain for winter quarters. It is reduced to a certainty thatScrg't Abby was murdered by the Camanchees, a few days after he was taken.

The Government has just received by telegraph, the following: Don Carlos is returned to St. Estevan. An engagement took place on the 23th in the direction of Estevan, which had no serious consequence. Bordeaux, Aug. 1. We have received by express, very important news from Spain. The Cholera has entirely ceased its ravages, for from the 20th, inclusive, to the evening of the 27th, there had not been more than two decided cases. Eijriit members of the Cortes had proposed to proclaim the Constitution of 1312, adopted at Cadiz; but the Chamber, on that motion, passed to the orders of the day. It is said that a person arrived in town from Bilboa, brings intelligence of an engagement between a detachment of the Carlists, commanded by Simon Torre, one of their principal chiefs. It however had no decisive result on either side. The same person states that 400 men from Vittoria had gone over to Don Carlos. This news is very far from being official. Madrid, July 20.

sitive news of the arrival of Don Carlos in Navarre, and the unexpected discovery of a conspiracy, prevented those demonstrations of loyalty which otherwise would have been shown. On the departure of the Queen from tho Hall of the Cortes, and through tho streets, loud acclamations were heard. You will see by the papers, that the Cortes are pursuing their labors tranquilly. Much is said of the conspiracy lately discovered, the object of which was to re-established the constitution of 1313. Hayonne, July 30. We learn that Cen.

.Distressing Accident. The following letter from Joel M. Smith, Esq. which has been furnished by the politeness of Col. Armstrong, Post Master of this city, gives the details of an accident which occurred on Saturday last, near Liberty in Smith county. Nashville Banner. Sparta, Sept, 13th. Dear Colonel It falls to my lot to inform you ofa most shocking accident which occurred about 2 o'clock this afternoon. After leaving Liberty and proceeding about 10 miles towards this place, the driver (Mr. Purnell) stopped at a house on the road, filled a bottle with whiskey and proceeded about one and a half mile3 on a very smooth road; when ho suddenly fell from his seat, both wheels passing over his neck and head, which terminated his earthly existence in a fow minutes. The horses became frightened, ran ofTwith the stage, and after

going about 60 yards, it upset and immediately struck a tree, threw the two wheel horses, killed orjc (or entirely ruined him,) and broke tho stage in pieces. There were five passengers in the stage and a young man sitting with the driver, who .jumped off without much injury; Mr. Howell, who left Nashville, with me, was slightly hurt, and also a lady and her little child, about 7 years old, were both considerably hurt, but I hope not dangerously. I escaped without the least injury, as did also a Mr. Matlock. I caused the mail to bo taken on immediately, and partly on horseback, with my trunk before me, and partly on foot, I arrived here afe 25 miles. Yours truly, J. M. SMITH. Murder. Two or three years ago, at Washington, N. C. a society of young men was formed called the Painting Club, the object of which was to paint or otherwise basmear drunkards found in the streets, borne time ago a man (of some property, at least, if not of respectability) by the name of Willis, being found drunk in the street, one of the painters, named 1 nomas, besmeared him with assafcetida This was at three o'clock in the afternoon.

Whilst the Menagerie of animals, now exhibiting in this section of country, were in our town, Mr John Black, a highly respectable and valuable citizen, by some mischance, in passing near the space occupied by the Elephant, was seized by that animal and in the presence of a numerous crowd, (many of whom were his relatives and connexion?,) instantly crushed to death.

Dreadful Accident. Mr Jacob C. Moses and Lady, arrived at the Park House in this city a fewdays since on a visit from Charlestown, S. C. Mrs. M. having heard Dr. Sweet, of Guilford, recommended as a skilful operator upon disjointed limbs, was desirous that he should examine her shoulder, which, from the trouble and inconvenience it gave her, she supposed had been dislocated. Her husband procured a four wheeled one horse buggy, and started for Guilford. On passing a barn near Branford, a fanning mill was suddenly put in motion. The noise frightened the horse, so that for a moment he sprang forward with increased speed ; Mr. M. reined him otf the road to avoid a wagon then approaching and in coming again upon the path, the vehicle was turned completely over, and melancholy to relate, the unfortunate gentleman's skull was fractured, just above the ear and hii wife's arm the very arm that had before afilictecl her was also broken. Mr. M. was taken un senr.pj

and died in two hours after the accident. The horse was perfectly gentle and ran but a few rods, when he turned about and came back to the carriage. The deceased was over fifty years of age, and has left, we understand, eleven children, (many of them, however, of age,) to mourn the loss of their parent.

Gibraltar, July 31. The cholera is increasing in Algeerias, Arganda, and Allicant. A suspicious disease broke out in Yillar do Canas in the Province Cuencaon the 15th, from which date to the ISth, 44 cases had occurred, 15 had been discharged, and 0 proved fatal. There was reason to believe, that the same disease had spread toCasasde Benitez and Castillejo de la Inicta. In the Province of Murica the malady was going through its various stages in the places where it prevailed. Of Lorca, it is particularly observed, that it presented no alarming symptoms. To tho 20th instant, no material alteration had taken place in the state of Consucgra and Mora, in the Province of Toledo. No account is given, in the Gazette, of the progress of the malady in Madrid, and the number of deaths, mentioned by private correspondents, is so great, that we abstain from stating it, until more authentic information be received. Lisbon, July 30. On the 27th instant, their Majesties arrived in this city from Oporto. His Imperial Majesty the Duke of Braganza, on the day he left that city, issued a proclamation, stating that although not entirely recovered from his illness, lie had not been willing any longer to delay his visit to that capital, accompanied by the Queen, in order to cangratulate the people, in person, on the honorable termination of the civil war.
